The Australian system of mandatory detention of asylum-seekers has become increasingly controversial. Insofar as commentary on detention has been framed historically, critics have pointed to Australia’s race-based exclusionary laws and policies over the twentieth century.

This is because the threat of strains of tuberculosis that are resistant to a wider range of drugs has been identified, and there is renewed concern that public health is threatened. This paper considers whether involuntary detention is justified where voluntary measures have failed or where a patient po...
Detention ponds are currently accepted as stormwater best management practices (BMPs) in coastal South Carolina.
